I assume you mean TCL_LIBRARY (since TCL_VERSION is #defined in Tcl.h)? You are correct though, I missed that part of the comment at the top of tkinter._fix. However, I don't know what issues arise from not having TCL_LIBRARY set before Tcl_FindExecutable() (I haven't seen any problems, but I live in an ASCII world). Also, I have tried stepping through the Tcl_FindExecutable() call in PyInit__tkinter() with the VS debugger, and didn't see anything that looked like it was trying to read TCL_LIBRARY or hit the filesystem at all, which makes me suspect that it may not actually need TCL_LIBRARY prior to Tcl_FindExecutable(). Can you give me steps to reproduce problems with not having TCL_LIBRARY set that early? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20035> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
